TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Failure of apnea monitoring during bed-sharing JO - Forensic science, medicine, and pathology A1 - Elder, Dawn E. A1 - Larsen, Peter A1 - Zuccollo, Jane M. SP - 167 EP - 169 VL - 4 IS - 3 N2 - We report the case of an infant found dead in bed with an adult while attached to a respiratory monitor sensor. We experimentally re-created a bed-sharing situation with an infant mannequin to demonstrate that a Graseby home apnea monitor continues to sense adult breathing and movement in the absence of infant breathing when used in this sleep situation.
